Cool but do you get rings for losing in the finals ?? Don't give me the team lost nonsense because Melo had a way worse team than kd and got the same amount of wins vs Bron . Durant has the better team and Melo has to get by the heat so it's asinine to act like its not harder to get out the east so yes Durant might get more playoff wins but lets see how many rings he gets


Really ?? I guess you missed this board last season when they lost and everyone was questioning how he was letting Russ shoot more him :heh: am I making stuff up ? Is this not a common criticism of kd ? He once again lost to Melo and let Russ take over the game . How many times does this have to happen before we blame Russ

:what: so now its harder to get out of the east cause of miami? The west is still better than the east, the knicks would be fukkin sixth in the west. If anything the difficulty of getting out is the same (and lets be real getting out the west is still harder, better teams each round).

Durants already got more scoring titles (the only shyt melos great at) than melo will prolly ever have. we still have to see on rings but the fact that he got to the finals so quick I'd be shocked if he doesn't get at least one.

The only series where I remember he pussied out and Russ had to save them was the memphis series 2 years ago when Russ took over and the only times durant touched the ball he jacked long distance 3s. Since then I'm pretty sure Durants taken over late more than russ has.

Kd has zero rings stop lumping him in with Bron and Kobe :wtf: i followed Melo too he has been expected to win series twice (clippers and Utah ) the first time he had a real team he got to the wcf and then his coach left them down . Kd can't beat Bron so where do you get this he wants it more ? His team is better than Melos , if Melos series vs the celtics didn't show you he has heart and wants to win idk what to tell you.
Do you realize Melo is the only person outside of the spurs big 3 to make the playoffs his first 10 years in his career?? How is that a career loser ?? Cp3 can't make it past the second round I guess he doesn't want it as much as Melo and kd ?? Your just projecting stuff that you think onto Melo

its ok bro just gimme a hug i feel yo pain my nikka

i use to argue on behalf of this nikka too smh

im convinced already but imma give him one more shot if he dont show me something this playoffs he most def aint got it in him

The heat are the best team in the nba aren't they?? The team that went to the last 2 finals while the west is a toss up tell me you think the spurs can't beat the thunder in the wcf??

well nobody ever in life has ever said Shane Battier was the best

you can be all technical n shyt if u want but dont act like im lyin

all dese nba nikkas is good but the mindset seperates the best from the rest of the nikkas

its a reason why they boosting KD now

cuz Melo had his chance and obviously he aint want it

lol they dont even compare Bron and Melo no more lolol

the main reason theyre boosting KD is because they dont like carmelo, and never did. thats basically what this all comes down to.

and whats so wrong with carmelo's mindset outside of the media always throwing dirt on him on the slick?

mindset plays a part, but its not as big of a deal as youre making it out to be. youre putting way too much emphasis on it.

i feel you man but when we talkin the best it is a big deal

even his demeanor be off in some games, its like he in the gym by hisself takin shots

not even dissing man i used to be the biggest melo fan in middle/high school
lol had braids,rocked his jordans, and wore his number

but seeing Bron evolve, KD evolving, and Melo not is sayin something

Melo is not a top flight megastar nor a leader

i think Jkidd is the reason behind they success right now

atleast the adjustment/mental side of it most def

The only bad series Durant has had was his first against LA. He's been brilliant ever since. Idk about this doesn't show up nonsense. He dominated that game 7 against Memphis in 2011 for example.

Just last year

Vs Dallas
26.5 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 3.8 apg, 1.8 bpg, 1.0 spg, 3.8 topg, 45.5% FG, 34.6% 3p, 81.8% FT. 57.9% TS,

vs. Los Angeles Lakers
26.8 ppg, 8.6 rpg, 3.2 apg, 0.6 bpg, 1.6 spg, 2.8 topg, 51.6% FG, 39.1% 3P, 85.3% FT, 62.1% TS

vs. San Antonio Spurs
29.5 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 5.3 apg, 1.5 bpg, 1.7 spg, 2.5 topg, 53.2% FG, 35.7% 3P, 91.1% FT, 66.2% TS,

Vs. Miami Heat
30.6 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 2.2 apg, 1.0 bpg, 1.4 spg, 3.8 topg, 54.8% FG, 39.4% 3P, 83.9% FT, 65.0% TS

Total average in the post-season.
28.5 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 3.7 apg, 1.2 bpg, 1.5 spg, 3.2 topg, 51.7% FG, 37.3% 3P, 86.4% FT, 63.2% TS

:comeon:
How can you say melo hasn't evolved ? Look at his numbers :aicmon: melo is a bigger star than kd since he's known by more people outside of basketball ( market helps but it's true) your just making stuff up breh how can you not give melo the credit when all his teammates say he's a better leader :dwillhuh: kd admits that royal Ivey and other players were the leaders of the team last year now he's finally trying to find his own voice :pachaha: his words before Sundays game. Your just watching basketball games and then applying your own conclusions . Hes better defensively than he was last year and jumping into crowds for loose balls yet he hasn't changed mentally ? When will kd improve defensively

:ehh:

:comeon: stats tell the whole story ? I honestly think you guys don't watch basketball and just stat watch . Do stats tell you why he lets Westbrook take over games ? Or why he can't beat the heat ?

See you argument is flawed . When I point out changes you ignore them since they go against your narrative .:comeon: how exactly is melo entitled ? The is diving in the crowd willing to sacrifice his body showing how he's a better teammate and leader yet you dismiss it . Kd been in the game for 5 years he's not a baby anymore . You said melo isn't a leader and i show you how kd admitted he wasn't A leader and you make excuses ? You can like kd better that's your prerogative but let's not act like Melos all around play hasn't improved :heh: unless your a hater
